Adam Salzman is the Founder and CEO of AdventureEXP, a company that offers destination work experiences customizable to an individual’s life and career goals. Here’s a bit about their programs from their website:

At AdventureEXP, we believe in the power of meaningful travel. We believe in individual potential and how it is empowered when you take that leap of faith and choose to take charge in your own life.

All our programs have four basic cornerstornes

1. They are tangible – we make the connection to employers in destinations throughout the US, get you hired and then faciliate all the logistics of travel and housing.

2. They are affordable – all of our programs are paid opportunities that enable you to actually earn money on your experience.

3. They are supported – we are there when you need us most – coordinate your arrival, onboarding to your new employer and hosting regular excursions.

4. They are credible – you gain interpersonal skills from the overall experience, professional skills from joining a company and technical skills from your job – these are all building blocks for your future.

Adam and I hit it off immediately in our chat as we discussed the unique mindset of an entrepreneur, the beauty of those who function well inside a system, why we never wanted another boss, his unique management philosophy, and a ton more. We cover so many of my favorite things to talk about – travel, entrepreneurship, management style, the unique problems of running a company, and a ton more. Adam is a sharp guy with a unique company, and this conversation absolutely flies by.
